As editorial director at AIGA, I keep tabs on all the design news (so you don’t have to) and bring you only the best bits. Behold: my weekly hit list of the most interesting things I’ve and seen, read, and watched this week. Follow along all day every day on Instagram @AIGAdesign and Twitter @AIGAdesign.

…remember John Berg, the Grammy-winning art director for Columbia Records who hadn’t designed a single record before taking the job, yet went on to work with some incredible creatives, including Milton Glaser, illustrator Tomi Ungerer, and photographer Richard Avedon on albums for musicians like Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, Simon and Garfunkel, and Thelonius Monk.

…count myself as a fan of the new typographic logo UK agency The Beautiful Meme created for a soon-to-be-opened museum dedicated to illustrator Heath Robinson, who Wired calls “the unsung hero of British eccentricity and innovation.” The logo itself references the complicated machines in the illustrations Robinson created as a cartoonist and ad man in turn-of-the-century London.

…can’t wait to see what comes out of Scotland’s Graphic Design Festival in Glasgow next week, though if it’s anything like last year’s we can expect big rooms full of super bold, pattern-rich posters by some of the UK’s brightest talents. Earlier this year we spoke to the founders, both fresh out of design school, about how on earth you start something this good right out of the gate.
